Watashi wo Tabetai, Hitodenashi/ This monster wants to eat me
Fish eats girl. Greatest love story ever told.

Two episodes so far, share your h/u/mble opinion about the adaptation, manga or sensitive subjects.

Love the manga, thought the adaptation had a lot of potential but got worried when I saw the trailer. I don't think it's gonna be a Sasakoi but honestly this anime is very generic in terms of directing and overall visuals, which is way less than this manga deserves imo.

Anyway I guess I'll just have to settle for an average adaptation. Sad because this is one of my favorite yuri manga but eh what's done is done. The team seems to have passion for the series but the lack of production value quite honestly made me sad. I know its still better than most seasonals I just don't like it that much.

I'm not into Yuri or Romance in general but the manga is incredible

Disappointed with the anime adaptation, clearly needs more of a budget and/or better staff or time. I do think the OP shows us a vision of what it could have been with more resources and I think that's great, shame it's only the OP

I will say episode 2 had less badly composed shots and much better executed surrealist water scenes/effects then episode 1 at least, hopefully the trend continues

>>4481751
Is it better then most seasonals tho? Your average seasonal shonen looks pretty dang good most of the time

Don't think its fair to compare action shonen to this but yeah I'm really disappointed. I'm not really hyped for any upcoming yuri adaptations other than maybe KimiShinu, pure romance even when well-written just bores me

I always found it odd how Hinako wears long sleeves even in the middle of summer.

How much you wanna bet she cuts herself?

She has scars on her arms because of the accident, that's why wears long sleeves.

You can catch a glimpse of the scars in episode 1, when Hinako's getting out of bed. But it's a blink-and-you-miss-it moment.

Ok I found that on Ch1 p4 of the manga too, on her upper right arm.

I am just curious if the mangaka did some research or if its just an excuse to always draw her in sleeves and tights.

It looks close to the manga’s artstyle, so perhaps the mangaka drew the stills for the ending

There's a more direct shot later in the manga too but I don't remember the exact chapter. I completely missed the early scars and only noticed when someone pointed it out to me.

I'm honestly a little puzzled why they adapted this. I love the manga but it's a very slow-paced work with a lot of talking and I feel like it doesn't gain a lot from being animated.
Anonymous No.4482919 [Report] >>4482933
Hinako, who currently wants to kill herself, is being pursued by two youkai who are presumably still immortal? And one is a mermaid. If you remember the Japanese conception of a mermaid, if you eat a bite of its liver you will gain eternal life. And as it is already a youkai, stabbing it and removing a piece of its liver won't kill it. So ryona? Maybe even self inflicted?
When the manga ends will the suicidal girl end up choosing eternity with her youkai friends and abandon humanity?

I think it really could have benefitted from it if they almost did it in a spiderverse way, where there's still speech bubbles and paneling and such that's depicted with the surrealist water effects

Think about the first sequence in the classroom where Hinako's depression is depicted as her being underwater with fish swimming by in the window, having the speech bubbles there become wavy was a thing in the manga that was still lost in translation a bit even if the speech become drowned out in the anime

you're just jealous because you don't have your own ED.

Personally, I don't have any problem with that, it raises the difference between both girls.

I don't think she was ever in the race. I reread it recently and had a feeling the author never even seeing her as a potential love interest. All romantic interactions are strictly between Hinako and fish and Miko herself from the start held to a place of best friend.

Miko actually cares about Hinako and has loved her since birth, even if not romantically right away. Her conflict between her nature, her guilt for being unable to protect the family and her earnest wish for Hinako to be happy is far more compelling than anything the stinky fish brings to a relationship.

>>4489831
I think you're intentionally ignoring a lot os subtle moments that show Miko likes Hinako way more than just a friend. But her role and the guilt make her mostly feel responsible for her as a caretaker more than a friend or a lover.

This is a biased post. Both of them would make an effective bodyguard.
Also, has Shiori ever shapeshifted into someone completely different? If she has, are we to assume Miko cannot do the same?

Not really, the only notable changes are that they sometimes work in the bonus chapters into the actual events of the chapters, though other times they're just included as a bonus scene at the end of episodes

The adaption itself is kinda eh, though, pretty plain direction/storyboarding and very budget animation.

The effects and compositing are fine, but not as good as the series deserves given all the cool shots the manga does with surrealist water imagerya lot of those moments don't hit as hard as they do in the manga.

The OP is great though and is what the show should have looked like.
